A well-written, extremely effective prologue to whatever mythological saga you or another ficleteer is dreaming up…
Considering the tension you’ve built up throughout the piece, however, I think that first line would work better put at the very end? Just a thought… Well done!
I don’t know whether this character is supposed to be emotionless, or if there is simply a lack of description in that area. Motivation would be an interesting facet to include in this story.
Otherwise, vivid natural imagery, and interesting plot.
